Will be earlier some. Later I seem to have more successful hunts in the chase phase before the rut when the first does start to cycle the bucks are on the hunt up and moving they are the most vundrable at this time I am no expert these are what I have seen in the field the more time you spend in the woods the better chance you have for success some hunters get the misconception that you just go to the woods and the deer will come remember they are still wild animals and spend most of their time in seclusion the best place to encounter one is in his house away from the beaten path
